The further away from the mid-ocean ridge, the older the rocks are on the ocean floor. Therefore, the ocean floor feature that would contain the newest rocks would be the mid-ocean ridge.
A mid-ocean ridge is an underwater mountain landmass generated after the plate tectonics. It forms when the ocean floor is uplifted by the magma generated by the rise of convection current during the divergent plate tectonics. The rocks generated by this process is due to the solidification of the lava after underwater volcanic eruption. Therefore, mid-ocean ridge likely to form new rocks in the oceanic bed.
One side of the mountain that has constant wind and rain blowing onto it, is more likely to catch what is falling than the other side leaving it dryer.
